QUESTIONS I OFTEN ASK BEFORE 9 AM

I play jump rope with the line that separates clean hair from dirty hair. Come Thursday, my head is like 20% hair, 80% battiste dry shampoo.

•

Is this skirt too short for work?

Can be substituted with "is this top too sheer"/"are these pants too tight"/"are these shoes too slutty"/"will I ever full grasp the parameters of a business casual dress code?"

•

Did I set the coffee timer?

•

Will Sam be working the register at Starbucks so I can get an extra shot for free?

Usually a direct result of realizing the answer to the above question is a staunch no. Shoutout to sam for getting me through some dark (read: slightly hungover) mornings

•

Am I going to be late?

•

Is that smell coming from the trash?

•

Do I have time for this?/when is my bus coming?

I am my most productive in the morning and am often confined by the constraints of public transportation. Things I forgo due to time include: brushing my teeth (I do this at work 4/5 days), brushing my hair (I do this always 0/5 days) and packing a lunch (I do this only on days where salmon special C isn't a thing at the sushi place next door).

•

I wonder where Savannah's dress is from.

Does anyone watch anything other than the today show?

•

Am I going to be late?

•

When is my Skimm coming?

Sometimes this gem of a daily newsletter comes at 7 and sometimes it creeps into my mailbox at noon

•

Should I watch this before work?

As pointed out by @lauracamrein, I often watch/read/see things that make me emotional before work. Today it was Caitlyn Jenner's ESPY speech. Yesterday it was a laundry detergent commercial.
